Weird Tim Walz
Brought up the fact that at rally after rally, this guy looks like he is a poor mime, just graduated his first day of mime school in France. He’s waving like a lunatic. He’s got a weird kind of dancing thing going on. He’s kind of blowing kisses and holding his heart and he’s so expressive and he’s going to cry. But he’s laughing, but maybe he’s angry. It’s all very strange. The mannerisms are peculiar. And a great number of people have stated that like this is Howard Dean type of world. When Howard Dean was going to maybe get the nomination for the Democrats and he gave out that giant scream, you know the:
And that ended his political campaign, that ended his political career. Yet you see this from Tim Walz. You’re like, how is this not equally as weird? But nothing is more weird than when he talks about being a football coach, but doesn’t really state that he was an assistant coach. He lets people believe he was the head coach.
He talks about serving an operation during freedom and lets people believe he was in Iraq and Afghanistan, but he wasn’t.
And then of course, the last one was about in vitro fertilization. And it’s because of that we had our beautiful daughter. Except it wasn’t IVF.
Well, I’ve been following this like you’ve been following this, and I follow Phil Kerpen of Americancommitment.org. And we have talked to Phil a lot, especially in the days of COVID, because nobody was breaking down the numbers and the data and the hospital data better and had a better understanding of the nonsense and the data than Phil Kerpen. Well, I’ve known Phil a while. Phil Kerpen joins us right now. And Phil, I have known you to be the coolest, calmest, most relaxed, nonplussed human being in the political world I’ve ever met. I would have said that anytime anybody had asked me. I have not seen anybody on the social media, so I personally know. Be more angry about Tim Walz and the lies he has told than you as almost if it is personal. Phil Kerpen of Americancommitment.org. Walk me through it. What is it about Tim Walz and these the things that I just brought up that has you so absolutely infuriated?
Well, first of all Tony and I have to congratulate you. That’s one of the best game screens I’ve ever heard. it almost sounded like a recording. You nailed it. You’re like the Dean scream master. I have to say I’ve heard of this guy, you know, basically going back to COVID, you mentioned that I followed everything that was going on during COVID extremely closely. And Minnesota was a very interesting state because their numbers were the craziest. You might remember the very beginning of COVID. I would track the number of deaths that have happened in the nursing home populations because none of the official data separated those out. And in some states, it was 50, 60% of all the deaths were in the nursing homes while they were locking down restaurants and schools.
I was like “Hey wait a second this doesn’t make sense.” Minnesota was the most extreme for a while during when I was tracking data, they were at like 80% of all the deaths in their state were in the nursing homes. And that was because Walz had the formal policy of shipping sick patients. Right into the nursing home to infect everyone else, which is like literally the worst policy you could possibly have for a virus that’s very dangerous for old and infirm people and otherwise not very dangerous for everyone else. So, he was doing the exact worst possible thing and getting, you know, these horrendous results that you kind of expect. And when New York reversed their policy after, you know, 5-6 weeks after a lot of controversy, Minnesota. Not doing it. They did not retreat. And in fact, Wall said he thought it was the right thing and he wasn’t going to change it. And so, I was thinking I was extremely critical of him from my early sort of tracking of, of the nursing home issue. And then of course, you know, I, my main focus became trying to get all the schools open and prevent the taste of school closures that was happening. Especially in the blue, blue states, but everywhere, at least for a while. And Minnesota has some of the worst school closures. They were closed. You know, he actually reclosed them after they were briefly opened and he cancelled all school sports, I think until about mid-January 2021. And then he missed the kids and all this kind of stuff. And then when he was running for reelection in 2022, he had one of these clips, I think I called it lie of the year at the time he had this clip, he was sitting there at the State Fair and he said, you know, over 80% of school kids in Minnesota missed less than 10 days of school. The best day that I have showed it was more like 100 or 150 days. And I’m like, this guy is unbelievable just to casually tell such a ridiculous lie.

And then of course, you know we’ve. Subsequently learned that basically every aspect of his biography and everything that he said and done has been a lie. So, there’s something about the way he just casually lies. And, you know, you pointed out that his favorite move is to say something that’s kind of technically true, but to make everyone think something that’s not true. So, he does, he does sort of this angle shooting, whatever you want to call it. Intentional deception, but with like a lawyerly defense when he gets called out on it. Although sometimes he slips up and just flat out lies, you know? So, like some of his IBF quotes are sort of lawyerly. Like I love IVF, thank God we have a family, but some of them are like, I use IVF. So I mean, I, I, he sometimes just crosses over into outright line, but he’s sort of the, the slimiest of slimy politicians. I mean, I can’t, I just think it really rose me the wrong way. How, you know, kind of how he operates and what he’s been able to get away with. And, and really it started because how bad he was during COVID.
Minnesota, as we could discuss was one of those states that had a hotline. “Hey, if you see somebody doing something wrong. Just call the hotline” and he was a guy saying “no, no, this is good, and it and it helps people.”

This ties into his entire history with China. The 30 trips the saying that communism is about people sharing.
Chinese communism is about everyone being the same and everyone sharing is what he taught school kids in Nebraska.
That is that is the exact quote did you as you dig in and as you find you know you go through his story. There’s been this conversation that he really has a thing for communist China and anniversary on the same day as Tiananmen Square the 30 visits the honeymoon in China etc. Um, were you thinking then about Tim Walz and how he has done things in Minnesota as in man, this is, this is a very reminiscent type of behavior the, the ease of which he moved down these roads.
Well, look, I mean, I think somebody who casually deceives everyone about every aspect of his own biography and life and how his own children were conceived and, you know, the nature of his military service and all this kind somebody who’s willing to do that so casually and so smoothly. Could be, could be an agent of a foreign government. We don’t look, I mean it just. Nothing about him rings as genuine. And so, you taste the fact that nothing about him rings as genuine, but the fact that he’s been to Communist China 30 times and taught school kids about how great it is. Basically, you know, there’s no we, there are a lot of dots. They haven’t been connected, but there are a lot of dots, and you look at them and you say something’s not right.
